Cover for my Trouble in the Pumpkin Forest bedtime story

Step into the Pumpkin Forest, where pumpkins of every shape and size grow under autumn leaves and three dear friends – Niblet, Pipkin and Jeremiah – live among them.

Every year, my Halloween sets take on a little life of their own. The pumpkins, the props, the characters – they all begin to whisper their stories. This year, with the Pumpkin Forest, those whispers grew into something bigger.

I couldn’t resist turning them into a bedtime story.

So, Trouble in the Pumpkin Forest was born — a tale of three friends:
Niblet the squirrel, small and quick, who loves nothing more than tending his pumpkins.
Pipkin the mouse, cheerful and clever, who knows every path in the forest.
Jeremiah the fox, wise and thoughtful, with a memory full of stories (that sometimes run a little long!).

When Niblet’s favourite pumpkin goes missing, Pipkin and Jeremiah rush to help. What follows is a journey through the forest, full of searching, silliness, and a gentle reminder that sometimes, the best thing we can do is slow down and listen.

It’s short, sweet, and written with cosy autumn nights in mind. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed creating it.  Curl up with a blanket, light a candle, and enjoy a little bit of Pumpkin Forest magic.
